Rodeo #2 is a Belgian Saison, but much bigger in alcohol than our original one. Clocking in at 7.5%, the alcohol is almost completely hidden under subtle notes of spice and clove from the Belgian Saison yeast. The mixed fermentation with Brettanomyces adds a dry farmhouse “funk” that nicely complements the Saison notes.

Left unfiltered, the beer is straw in color and light in body, and the dryness leaves you wanting more and more.

16oz sample bottle from the brewery.

Nice froth on top, nearly clear golden straw hue. Faint funk in the nose with yeasty, bready, and spicy tones within. Saison yeast is very noticeable and appreciated. Very fresh with yeast flavors dominating, easy to drink even for its size. Perhaps a bit too fresh? I wonder what 6-9 more months of conditioning would do to this brew. A good sip regardless.
